MS Patient shouldn’t talk this person obviously is just a retard who has never done it himself. I know plenty of people who smoke it and they dont use other drugs or even smoke cigarettes, they use it to chill out. MS patient is against it because he or she would rather have a harder drug:)

Comment on Michigan Proposal 1- Medical Marijuana by Matt Sandefur

I am 43 years old. I suffer from a condition called degenerative disc disease in my lower back. this is a chronic form of arthritis in the lower back. I was diagnosed with this via MRI three years ago. It will only get worse as I become older. Every now and again the pain is terrible. I get no sleep. Sometimes my wife has had to help me get dressed. Would this proposal benefit me and help my condition? I have had opiod pain killlers prescribed to me in the past and these seemed more harmful than helpful. They brought little to no relief. I would appreciate your insight on this. Thank You!

it is as simple as this “they always said there would never be a black president”
just like they said ” marijuana will never be legalized”. this is all part of a generation gap and how that certain generation views a subject. It will be legal at some point when the new young generation out weighs the rest just like the young voters in the election. I could goes on for hours just clearly showing the pros of marijuana “especially compared to the legalized alcohol in which the government makes a lot of revenue by tax and probation cost, and causes way more damage. And the ignorance of the none smoker that is constantly delaying our chance to legalize, implying the negatives when they don’t even smoke!! wtf is up with people

There will be people who abuse medical marijuana, but the drugs right now, like oxycotton, cocaine, methemfetamine, aderol, and other pills, people abuse these hard drugs, they can overdose and die. If someone was to get medical marijuana they could abuse it, just like some people do everything, the most it can do is give them a serious case of the munchies, which will help them eat and stay healthy. Lets compare something thats legal, like ALCOHOL. Yeah, sure it will take some pain away, but can also impair you and cause a serious injury. Smoking marijuana just relaxes and gives an appetite, it may slow down a bit but how many alcohol related car crashes have their been compared to people who smoked a couple doobs and drove.

Marijuana is impossible to overdose on. You would fall asleep or get hungry long before you got you harmful levels of THC. I wouldn’t say that ‘MJ’ is addictive, either. It definitely can be habit forming, but all it takes to keep in check is a little discipline.

It just happens that people inclined to try illegal things don’t often have much discipline.

I think the dangers of marijuana are blown way out of proportion, as are the effects of this proposal. There will be no ‘pot shops’ because this proposal only PROTECTS PRESCRIBED, SERIOUSLY ILL PATIENTS AND THEIR DOCTORS FROM PROSECUTION AND DOCTORS ARE ONLY ALLOWED TO PRESCRIBE FIVE PATIENTS EACH.

So, if you can find a doctor who hasn’t already used up his five, then convince him you have HIV or AIDS or Crohn’s, then you might be able to get his prescription, at which point you’ll have to get a special ID card. Then you or your caregiver have to GROW it. Because it’s still illegal to buy or sell it.

I’ll admit it. I smoke recreationally from time to time. How do I expect this Proposal to effect me? Not in the slightest.

I approve of it on the level that if your doctor tells you something might help, it shouldn’t be against the law for you to follow his advice.

But Marijuana is still VERY illegal. Far more illegal than it should be. There’s no way that is should be classified with heroine or cocaine. (Both man-made)
First of all, it’s a PLANT. It grows that way. All on it’s own. Even in the wild, if you let it. You don’t have to do ANYTHING to it. You don’t even have to smoke it. You can eat it. You can make tea.

Marijuana is illegal BECAUSE it’s a plant. Pfizer can’t hold a monopoly on it, and the government can’t tax it, because anybody can grow it. So they make it as illegal as possible, so that anybody they catch with it can be fined, arrested, thrown in jail, instituitionalized, and then handed a bill at the end of it all, payable to the government. Just another way that big corporations and the government bust into our lives and empty our wallets.

Michigan as a state has MORE to gain from complete legalization than anything else.

Think of the tourism!

I am voted for proposal 1 with a lot of hold backs. I believe that patients that need weed to get by day to day should be able to. Then it comes into play all of the people who will be using weed and know that they can use medical reasons as a defense it the court room. I don’t believe that we should make it that easy for men and women to get high just to do and slack and forget their responsibilities. We in michigan now have a high unemployment rate just wait til people think they can get away with smoking weed. People who smoke are unmotivated. I think the law needed to be rewritten, but i voted for it because there are people who truly need it and we should keep them from getting the comfort they need because some people are gonna be idiots.

I have heard about this proposal and i have been pondering it in my head back and fourth with this one. if we are to legalize where are the ill and sick going to get it? how much are they going to get? how are they going to be able to regulate who is really ill or sick and who is not and just smoking it for a good time? its alot to think about.
